Bombshell follows late, disgraced Fox News CEO and chairman Roger Ailes’ fall from grace at the network after being accused of sexual harassment by numerous women, including Kelly and Gretchen Carlson, played by Nicole Kidman in the movie. John Lithgow portrays Ailes, who died in 2018; Margot Robbie joins as a fictional news producer; and Connie Britton, Mark Duplass, Alice Eve, Allison Janney and Kate McKinnon round out the star-studded cast.

The forthcoming film marks the latest of Theron’s transformations for a role. The actress, 44, won an Oscar for her unrecognizable performance as a serial killer in 2003’s Monster, shaved her head in 2012 for Mad Max: Fury Road and gained 50 pounds for 2018’s Tully, which earned her a Golden Globe nomination.
